该剧改编自翁贝托·艾柯的符号学推理经典小说，讲述修道院中的谋杀案：1327年的意大利，方济会修士威廉(特托罗)和他的学徒Adso(达米安·哈顿)来到位于阿尔卑斯山的一座僻静修道院，目击了一系列谋杀。调查途中，他们被教堂检察官Bernardo Gui(艾弗雷特)追捕，后者无情起诉任何对于天主教教义有批判的人。

“玫瑰的名字”是中世纪用来表明含有象征意义的词汇，故事亦以一所中世纪修道院为背景。原本就已被异端的怀疑和僧侣的个人私欲弄得乌烟瘴气的寺院，却又发生了一连串离奇的死亡事件。一个博学多闻的圣方济格教士负责调查真相，却被卷入恐怖的犯罪中…… 这是一部侦探、哲理、历史小说。除了扑朔迷离、扣人心弦的故事情节外，书中充满了各种学问，涉及神学、政治学、历史学、犯罪学，还涉及亚里士多德、阿奎那、培根等不同的思想。展现了作者渊博的学识和超凡的叙述才能。
